How is that for an opening photo?! OUCH! My foot hurts so bad. That's the biggest blister I've ever had. It started out as one little one and then two formed beside it forming that lovely image above. Darn Saucony shoes. I didn't think it was possible to lose weight in your feet, but I guess if you can lose weight on your hands, why not your feet?! My foot has started sliding around in my shoes. The punishment for my shoes will be as follows - they will be worn once more, and only once more, during the Warrior Dash! HA!
Saturday I went to
Road Runner's and bought a new pair of shoes...
Nike's! They fit so nice, and I just have to say that I love, love, love this shoe store! The lady who sold me my shoes showed me a way to tie them to prevent them from slipping on my heel (they didn't do that when I was running around the store in them, but my other pair of Nike's do). They also offer a military discount! Plus they have a VIP program for $19.99 (which only cost me $1 thanks to the military discount). It saves me 10% on everything I buy from them, plus my 10% military discount which is a wonderful 20% every time I go there!! I love a good deal.
I'll break my new shoes in on Wednesday's run (I wore my Saucony's on Sunday's 3.5 mile run and the blister above is what happened). I will put the shoes on when I leave for my run and take them off when I get home. Running and running only in these guys. My other Nike's will become my day to day shoes. My foot measured at an 8 in running shoes, but my older Nike's are an 8 and they are tight in the toes, my new ones are 8.5. Hopefully that'll help. The lady who sold me my shoes said that it's common in Nike's. We shall see. If they don't workout it's back to Mizuno's for me.
